Wu MC. Optoelectronic tweezers. Nature Photon. 2011;5(6):322–4.
Abstract: Using projected light patterns to form virtual electrodes on a photosensitive substrate, optoelectronic tweezers are able to grab and move micro- and nanoscale objects at will, facilitating applications far beyond biology and colloidal science.

Abstract: The demonstration that quantum information can be stored in a bulk-diamond crystal in the form of an optically excited phonon gives researchers a new type of mechanical solid-state quantum memory to explore.

Xu XA, Wong CW. Quantum optics: Correlations on a chip. Nat Photon. 2012;6:75–6.
Abstract: Researchers have developed a semiconductor structure capable of supporting quantum correlations between photons and strong single-photon nonlinearities, thus paving the way for the development of chip-based devices for quantum secure communications and quantum information processing.

Kok P. Quantum optics: Entangled photons report for duty. Nat Photon. 2010;4(8):504–5.
Abstract: Entangled photons are a key ingredient in optical quantum technologies, but researchers have so far been unable to produce a single pair of entangled photons. Now, two groups from China and Austria independently report just that, with a technique that avoids the need to infer entanglement from detection signatures.
